PRIVACY and DATA POLICY, and COOKIE POLICY

Providing our Service requires collecting and using your information.

Please be advised the App is hosted in the United States. If you access the App from any other region of the world with laws or other requirements governing personal data collection, use, or disclosure that differ from applicable laws in the United States, then through your continued use of the App, you are transferring your data to the United States, and you agree to have your data transferred to and processed in the United States.

DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT (“DMCA”) NOTICE and POLICY

Notifications

We respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that any material available on or through the App infringes upon any copyright you own or control, please immediately notify our Designated Copyright Agent using the contact information provided below (a “Notification”). A copy of your Notification will be sent to the person who posted or stored the material addressed in the Notification. Please be advised that pursuant to federal law you may be held liable for damages if you make material misrepresentations in a Notification. Thus, if you are not sure that material located on or linked to by the App infringes your copyright, you should consider first contacting an attorney.

All Notifications should meet the requirements of DMCA 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) and include the following information: (1) A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (2) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works on the App are covered by the Notification, a representative list of such works on the App; (3) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (4) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address at which the complaining party may be contacted; (5) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (6) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed upon.

Counter-Notification

If you believe your own copyrighted material has been removed from the App as a result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written counter notification to [us/our Designated Copyright Agent] using the contact information provided below (a “Counter Notification”). To be an effective Counter Notification under the DMCA, your Counter Notification must include substantially the following: (1) identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled; (2) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court in which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which we are located; (3) a statement that you will accept service of process from the party that filed the Notification or the party's agent; (4) your name, address, and telephone number; (5) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the material in question was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and (6) your physical or electronic signature.

If you send us a valid, written Counter Notification meeting the requirements described above, we will restore your removed or disabled material, unless we first receive notice from the party filing the Notification informing us that such party has filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material in question. Please note that if you materially misrepresent that the disabled or removed content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may be liable for damages, including costs and attorney's fees. Filing a false Counter Notification constitutes perjury.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION: Our Agreement and What Happens if We Disagree

Binding Arbitration: How We Will Handle Disputes and Time for Filing.

ANY CLAIM UNDER THESE TERMS MUST BE BROUGHT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ARISES, OR SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION IS BARRED.

IF THE PARTIES ARE UNABLE TO RESOLVE A DISPUTE THROUGH INFORMAL NEGOTIATIONS, THE DISPUTE (EXCEPT THOSE DISPUTES EXPRESSLY EXCLUDED BELOW) WILL BE FINALLY AND EXCLUSIVELY RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.

YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, LEGAL CLAIM, OR DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND US ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR KOLYDE ("CLAIM(S)") MUST BE RESOLVED BY ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. YOU AND WE MAY BRING A CLAIM ONLY ON YOUR OWN BEHALF AND CANNOT SEEK RELIEF THAT WOULD AFFECT OTHER KOLYDE USERS.

PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. YOU AGREE WITH US THAT CLASS ACTIONS AND CLASS ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.

*Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate.* You can decline this agreement by submitting the opt-out form within 30 days of first registering your account to ATTN: Kolyde Arbitration Opt-Out, 2061 W. Sierra Ave., Fresno, CA 93711. However, if you agreed to a previous version of these Terms that allowed you to opt out of arbitration, your previous choice to opt-out or not opt-out remains binding.

Arbitration Procedures Our dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular claim (or a request for particular relief) cannot be arbitrated in accordance with this provision's limitations, then only that claim (or only that request for relief) may be brought in court. All other claims (or requests for relief) remain subject to this provision. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA webApp: www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined to by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all arbitration fees and expenses.  The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The neutral arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Fresno, California USA. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

Notice of Claim to Kolyde First

Before you commence arbitration of a claim, you must provide us with a written Notice of Dispute that includes your name, residence address, username, email address or phone number you use for your Kolyde account, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. Any Notice of Dispute you send to us should be mailed to Kolyde, Inc., ATTN: Kolyde Arbitration Filing, 2061 W. Sierra Ave., Fresno, CA 93711. Before we commence arbitration, we will send you a Notice of Dispute to the email address you use with your Kolyde account, or other appropriate means. If you and us are unable to resolve a dispute in good faith, within sixty (60) days after the Notice of Dispute is received, you or we may commence arbitration.

If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Fresno, California, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non-conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. The laws of the State of California, to the extent not preempted by or inconsistent with federal law, will govern these Terms and any claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

In no event shall any Dispute brought by you related in any way to the App be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.  If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another, or any other proceeding, without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitrations or proceedings; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. Neither you nor us will seek to have a dispute heard as a class action or private attorney general action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity.

Exceptions to Arbitration

The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; (c) any claim for injunctive relief, and (d) or efforts to interfere with the Service or engage with the Service in unauthorized ways (for example, automated ways). If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court. Except as provided above with respect to jurisdiction in Fresno, California, nothing in this arbitration provision shall be construed as consent by Kolyde to the jurisdiction of any other court with regard to disputes, claims or controversies unrelated to the Kolyde Service or this Agreement.

Instead of using arbitration, you or we can bring claims in your local "small claims" court, if the rules of that court will allow it. If you don't bring your claims in small claims court (or if you or we appeal a small claims court judgment to a court of general jurisdiction), then the claims must be resolved by binding, individual arbitration.
